ASSISTANCE TO UNEMPLOYED

Heavy Task In Britain

London. October 2 Local authorities throughout Britain will to-morrow be notifed that, subject

Parliamentary to approval, the dates on which the --new unemployment assistance scheme, which is to supplement and complete the provision for unemployed made by unemploy- ment insurance, is to come into

force are January 7 and March 1

next years

On the first of these dates, per-

This means the new Cabinet will have decided anti-Marxist tendency and will endeavour to put an end to unbridled Marxist agita- tion for labour uprising which bas been causing considerable unrest throughout the country.

Lerroux is confident of being able to present a new list of ministers in the course of Wednesday, thus enabling the Cabinet to make its debut before the Cortes on Thurs- day.-
